Spitting sutures are a common complication of dermatologic surgery following closure of a cutaneous defect using buried sutures. This development can be distressing and uncomfortable for patients and may lead to further complications, such as surgical-site infection and abscess. Presented here is a straightforward and reliable algorithm to guide management of spitting sutures and their complications.

Review
Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are a family of developmentally related cells that are involved in immunity and in tissue development and remodelling. Recent research has identified several distinct members of this family. Confusingly, many different names have been used to characterize these newly identified ILC subsets. Here, we propose that ILCs should be categorized into three groups based on the cytokines that they can produce and the transcription factors that regulate their development and function.

Review
Gastro-esophageal reflux (GER) is a common occurrence in newborns and a cause of anxiety to most parents. This physiological process needs to be closely differentiated from pathological reflux. The clinical signs in infants are generally non-specific which makes the distinction difficult. The diagnostic options in infants are limited, have low sensitivity and not readily available. Treatment of GER is challenging both for the clinician and family. The mainstay of therapy involves use of conservative modalities with limited use of pharmacological agents and surgical methods. This review aims to amalgamate evidence based guidelines to our current clinical practice.

Review
More than a decade ago, type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) were discovered to be members of a family of innate immune cells consisting of five subsets that form a first line of defence against infections before the recruitment of adaptive immune cells. Initially, ILC2s were implicated in the early immune response to parasitic infections, but it is now clear that ILC2s are highly diverse and have crucial roles in the regulation of tissue homeostasis and repair. ILC2s can also regulate the functions of other type 2 immune cells, including T helper 2 cells, type 2 macrophages and eosinophils. Dysregulation of ILC2s contributes to type 2-mediated pathology in a wide variety of diseases, potentially making ILC2s attractive targets for therapeutic interventions. In this Review, we focus on the spectrum of ILC2 phenotypes that have been described across different tissues and disease states with an emphasis on human ILC2s. We discuss recent insights in ILC2 biology and suggest how this knowledge might be used for novel disease treatments and improved human health.

A 78-year-old woman with a history of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and asthma was referred to her cardiologist for chest pain and dyspnea on exertion. After performing stress echocardiography, it was determined that closure of the fistula with coils was indicated. This case highlights that coronary fistula could be an unusual entity of angina, clinically improving after the occlusion procedure.
